Warren has earned himself a reputation for being the class clown. His teacher, Ms. Washington, used to laugh at Warren's funny remarks but is now trying to discourage

Rather than decreasing his joke telling, Warren begins telling even more outrageous jokes. Inadvertently, Ms. Washington is modifying Warren's joke-telling behavior through:

   b. Extinction
   c. Punishment
   d. Negative reinforcement
